nodejs and npm #1

Closed TinajaLabs closed 8 years ago

TinajaLabs commented 8 years ago

I just installed rocket.chat on a raspi 3 (latest debian, jessie) and it seems to be working perfectly. A lot happened during that install so your application is valuable for that alone. Thank you.

My next hope is to install hubot and it requires node.js and npm. Now I see NPM does not appear to be installed. I think that nodejs was installed as part of raspian or maybe as part of rocket.chat.

Anyway, when I try to install nodejs through DPlatform, it says it's already installed and bounces out.

I manually installed npm and all is well. Just thought I would mention a catch-22 in your app; if nodejs is installed then your app will not allow an install of NPM; except manually.

Thanks, Chris.

I thought that installing NodeJS through nodesource will install also npm as a bundle. Thanks, i add npm with nodejs installation :+1:
